Your rights with credit card companies

Under the Fair Credit Billing Act you have 60 days from the statement date to dispute a billing error in writing, and the issuer must investigate. Your liability for unauthorized charges is capped at $50 by law (and usually zero in practice). Issuers must give 45 days' notice before raising your interest rate or most fees.

Scam warning: Your card company will never ask you to read out a full card number, PIN or one-time code on a call it made. Hang up and call the number on the back of the card.

Talk about it

Be kind and stick to facts. No account numbers or other people's details. Rules

No comments yet. Start the conversation - questions are welcome too.

Complaint records are public consumer complaints filed with U.S. regulators, checked (newest received Nov 15, 2026). Complaints are consumers' own accounts and are not verified; counts grow with a company's size. How the data works

Check the record before you sign.

Then add to it. Every experience you share - good or bad - goes on that company's record and helps the next person decide. Two minutes, anonymous.
